HEVI-Shot HEVI-Bismuth 12 Gauge 2-3/4in #4 Shot

Environ Metal Inc HEVI-Bismuth shotshells in 12 gauge (part no. HS14704) load a 2-3/4-inch, 1-1/4-ounce payload of #4 bismuth shot at a listed 1,450 feet per second, built for hunters who want steel-alternative density without the risk to an older or classic shotgun. HEVI-Shot’s bismuth alloy runs 22 percent denser than steel, dense enough that hunters can drop down one shot size from their usual steel load and still get comparable lethality. Because bismuth is soft relative to steel, it is safe to pattern through fixed chokes and vintage barrels that steel shot can damage. For wingshooters who hunt with a gun steel shot was never built for, this shotgun shells is the answer.
